In a performative guided tour, Drag King Bently Bentäga takes visitors through the special exhibition “Zier & Zeichen.” The focus is on jewelry as a statement, a mask, and a means of power. Through crowns, rings, and beards, it becomes clear: masculinity is not a law of nature, but a performance—and jewelry can be its accessory.
The tour combines cultural-historical exhibits with pop culture and queer perspectives. It raises questions about visibility, social norms, and belonging: Who is allowed to adorn themselves—and who decides that? Where do boundaries lie, and how can they be shifted? A tour for anyone interested in rethinking masculinity and diving into the world of drag.
